Abstract:

A theoretical model is a conceptual representation of the hypothesized relationships between variables of interest, providing a framework for understanding organizational phenomena. An insightful model is key to determining whether a paper is interesting and impactful. This lecture explores the pivotal role of theoretical models in quantitative research in the field of organization and management. By analyzing papers published in top management journals, this lecture categorizes theoretical model construction into three types. In this lecture, we will introduce the characteristics, challenges, and construction strategies of these three types of theoretical models. The aim of this lecture is to provide guidance to develop well-structured, insightful theoretical models to enhance the quality of their research.
